Hi everyone! I wanted to share my first actual bytebeat with you guys!
br>I'm somewhat new to the world of bytebeat, and I've been trying to learn how to make songs. However, after experimenting a lot, I've finally made one!

I recently figured out how to use arrays for sequencing, so I figured I could start making a song. What I ended up with was a Sierpinski melody + kicks from another bytebeat, and I think it turned out really well! The song is about 32.76 seconds long.

Here it is!

s=t>>17&1,t>>"45"[s]&t*"2256"[t>>13&3]|[1e4,[5e3,5e4][t>>13&1]][s]/(t%[4096,8192][s])

(dollchan / sarpnt)

And here's a badly annotated formatted version:
(dollchan / sarpnt)

I'm hoping I can sometime move away from classic bytebeat and into HQ songs like the ones under the Big JS and Floatbeat tabs. I always have you guys to help! ;)

Anyways, what do you guys think of my first song?

simple modulation, i guess

So I just figured out how to use another thing correctly: sin()! I realized you have to use it with signed bytebeat, so I've done that.

It took a while for me to find a good example of using sin() for kicks, but I managed to pull some code out of No Limit:

127*sin(2E3/(t&4095))*.2

What I did next was change the sample rate to 44100hz, and I turned the 2e3 into an array, like this:

63*sin([2e4,1e3,1e3,1e3][(t>>12)%4]/(t&4095))

( dollchan / sarpnt )

This gave me a nice psytrance beat :)
So now I found myself experimenting with this and I tried to get the code working with other stuff, but it just messed up every time. Then I tried using |t>>1 at the end, and I realized I could multiply it by different numbers (floats in this case) to play different notes! I also figured out I could add or subtract from t in the array accessing to offset the melody, and that let me get what I wanted ;D

Here's the final bytebeat:

63*sin([2e4,1e3,1e3,1e3][(t>>12)%4]/(t&4095))|(t>>1)*[1,1,1.5,1.25][((t+7680)>>16)%4]

( dollchan / sarpnt )

I know I might sound weird explaining all of this, but I'm not a good bytebeat coder though I'm proud of what I've accomplished!

SthephanShi can you please add my bytebeats to the player library???

So I managed to get this bell-like sound with sin():

sin(t)*((t%22050)-10)>>10

But why does it play backwards? What do I need to fix to get it to play correctly? (Sorry if there's a noob mistake I didn't catch.)

Issue with implementing bytebeat in JS

OnixIsThePewterGod 02.10.22 Sun 02:45:20 № 209

(163B, 1x1)

I wrote a short JS script that should have generated proper bytebeat music:

for(let t=0;;t++){
  process.stdout.write(String.fromCharCode(t>>7&t));
}

The script does not generate music correctly. How can I get the script to generate bytebeat music correctly?

How to make 8D audio in Bytebeat

OnixIsThePewterGod 11.04.23 Tue 18:20:01 № 814 1

1x1.png
(95B, 1x1)

For floatbeat it's as easy as this:

// 48000hz floatbeat
v=t
/192e3 //rate (in t)
,
[out*sin(v),out*cos(v)]

Basically, 8D audio works by making one channel quieter while the other is louder, and their volumes follow a sine wave pattern. This is very easy to accomplish in Bytebeat; all you do is decalre a variable that represents the volume pattern (by dividing t by your rate of each (half?) volume cycle), then take the sin()s and cos()s respectively of that variable and multiply that with your bytebeat's output, then put both in seperate channels (as above).
Of course this can be easily modified for Classic and Signed.
Example

I don't really understand reverb... Someone explain and give an example?

I've looked at some bytebeats with reverb and I've tried to understand how it works. From what I understand, it seems to me that it works something like this:
- Declare an Array object and fill it with 0s

- Take your "melody" or whatever and add <Array>.shift() to it

- Push that divided by a number??? (like 3) maybe??? into the array

- Set the output to the "melody"

I still don't have a good idea of this. I tried doing this myself:

t?0:d=Array(2000).fill(0),main=sin(t/4)/4+d.shift(),d.push(main),main

Dollchan
it's messy lol xD

Dividing main by 2 or larger in d.push(main) gives a different result: I hear a bit of bounciness and the tone comes back. I turned the ample rate down to 8000 and I heard it wasn't a smooth decrease; it seems to "step". Lastly, I decided to use a number between 1 and 2 and the fading is slower, but I could still tell I did it wrong because of the "stepping".

Could someone please correct me on whatever I may have messed up, explain reverb properly, and give a basic example of using it?

lhphr 25.04.23 Tue 19:46:32 № 943 2

You aren't doing anything wrong with the reverb effect. It's just that the "melody" that you've put in doesn't change enough, as in there's no notable pitch nor volume changes within the code.

Here's an example where the delay is more clear.

You are traveling through space in your ship. There are plenty of dangers out there. Thankfully, all you can see ahead of you is the vast emptiness of space. Maybe no one has explored it yet. You think, this is why they call it the final frontier.

I decided I wanted to join in with the space lore stuff. Wish more people could do it too...
Also I just learned how to do reverb as well as no array arrays. My reverb isn't really that good but I still think it fits the space theme. I'm legitimately proud of this though, especially for keeping it under 200c. ;)
